Please note that the YAMNet inference demo is a toy and is only meant to show how to pass audio data from an audio file into the model and read out the predictions. If you wanted to do real-time inference on an audio stream, you would definitely not repeatedly run inference.py as it's written, you would write your own custom audio-handling loop.
The performance differences you are seeing between Windows and Linux are out of scope for us, and are probably due to some differences in TensorFlow, Python, NumPy, resampy, and your specific setup. It might be better to ask this on some more general forum (Stack Overflow, etc).
Thank you @plakal and @kumariko . That makes sense.

Bug Description
I understand that usually codes run more efficiently in Linux than Windows, but in my case it is opposite. This, along with the fact that there is a 12x CPU Usage and 2x RAM Usage, leads me to believe that there might be an optimization issue.
The cross-platform code works on both Windows and Ubuntu.
In Windows: -2% CPU Usage -200MB RAM
In Ubuntu: -25% CPU Usage -465MB RAM
Variables I have kept constant: -Same Hardware (Dual boot from same SSD with 2 partitions on Intel Core i5 4460) -Both platforms freshly installed (not bloated OS) -Both platforms using CPU (not GPU) -Same code -Same Python version -Same TF version
Steps to reproduce
Just running the "inference.py" from Yamnet in a forever loop to predict realtime audio captured by "sounddevice" libary
Expected behavior
From my understanding, the code running on Linux should be the same or more efficient than Windows.
